From the episode

The true ceiling, like the 99th percentile outcome for Nico, I do not think is the same as some of these other wide receivers because they're going to play good defense... they're going to play good defense and run the ball and not get into shootouts
Mentioned at 50:17 – 50:41

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Collins' 99th percentile ceiling is lower than peer WRs due to Texans' defensive scheme.

Adam Levitan likes Nico Collins and thought he was a fine pick at the 2-3 turn, but notes that his true ceiling (99th percentile outcome) is not the same as some other wide receivers because the Texans play good defense when not facing Josh Allen, run the ball, and avoid shootouts like some other teams; Collins is solid but his upside is capped relative to peers.
